Could I please pick you brain to see if I understand this right:
Creating loops requires an account on the/a loops server. Okay, I guess the app has some special video edit features and somewhere it needs to be published. And maybe I even want this as a separate stream.
But how about consuming? Is one activitypub account enough to consume and interact (text, share) with mastodon, pixelfed, loops?
Would the content then only exist on the source server and I access it like a web page? Or would the content get sent to my instance? With mastodon content, I understand the content gets sent to the instance where I have the account. So I could access it, even if the originating server goes down.

So far, the way it has worked is that every AP implementation's content works on other implementations, because AP supports media. The exception is Lemmy, because Topic Threads are not in the AP standard, but that's partially an issue of what other software hasn't implemented.
I would guess that Loops, if implemented correctly, will be viewable from most other softwares, and I'm assuming they will test with Mastodon.
